I didn't think he was sitting at home either. yes we are both single and we are both free to do what we want with whom we want. it just hurts to know that I was dumb enough to be sleeping with him along with many others. I had hopes we would someday get back together, but now I feel like just a booty call.how to I cope? how do I finally walk away?

reader, anonymous, writes (22 December 2014): I'm sorry hun. How do you walk away...it's one of those things you don't give much thought to. You just do it. It generally is something that people who place a high value on themselves have little trouble doing. Doesn't mean they don't suffer. They too will go through 75 boxes of Kleenex and play With or Without You on repeat for the next month. But they have a keen understanding of how pathetic being cheated on is. And they'd most likely prefer to eat s**t than tolerate being treated that way. If it makes you feel any better, my ex boyfriend cheated on me too. As if that's not bad enough, you know who with? My "best friend." Know what I did? I gathered the very little strength I had, pulled through it, and moved on. Its hard, I know. But it can be done. Furthermore, it should be done. You owe it to yourself...I bet you can imagine how good it felt when a year later he called begging for my forgiveness. The script had been flipped. Everytime he called I'd laugh and smile cause I was no longer running to answer his call like I used to. I'd let it go to voicemail. I made him suffer and sweat as he'd done to me. But at least my reason was justified. It took him four months of calling, texting, sending me letters in the mail, I got a marriage proposal, went to my work, for me to finally reply. My reply was brief. I told him to f**k off. Those were my last words to him. He kept trying for a few more months. He still calls sporadically. Be strong. Few things in this world feel better than having dignity.
